If you truly mean the doc format and not docx, OpenOffice does read and write that. It reads docx but does not write it. There is no fee for OpenOffice, just download it from www.openoffice.org. I would recommend saving your documents in OpenOffice's native odt format and saving as doc only when you are done editing. Saving in a foreign format always carries the risk of some loss of formatting.
